SPE ACCE 2025 - Efficient Simulation for Hybrid Overmolded Composite Lattice Structures: A Combined Implicit and Explicit FEA Approach
WEAV3D presents an Efficient Simulation for Hybrid Overmolded Composite Lattice Structures: A Combined Implicit and Explicit FEA Approach at SPE ACC 2025.This paper presents a hybrid workflow: multiscale modeling enables quick stiffness evaluation and guide design iteration, while discrete modeling is applied to critical designs for detailed stress and strain analysis. The hybrid workflow is demonstrated on a heavy truck component to illustrate how the combined approach improves computational efficiency in part-level analysis of lattice-reinforced composites.
